Print Recipe

A sweet, citrusy, and fizzy non-alcoholic Halloween punch with a dramatic dry ice fog effect that looks like a real witch’s cauldron. Perfect for parties and kid-friendly.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (64 oz) bottle of Fruit Punch or Berry Punch (e.g., Hawaiian Punch or lemonade)
  • 1 (2 liter) bottle of Lemon-Lime Soda (e.g., Sprite or 7Up)
  • 1 (1 liter) bottle of Ginger Ale (optional)
  • 1 pint of Lime or Rainbow Sherbet
  • 1 cup of Orange Juice
  • 1 cup of Pineapple Juice
  • 1–2 pounds of food-grade Dry Ice
  • Optional: Gummy worms, plastic spiders, orange slices, black licorice strings for garnish

Instructions

  1. Chill all ingredients (fruit punch, lemon-lime soda, ginger ale, and juices) in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.
  2. Prepare garnishes: arrange gummy worms or plastic spiders on a plate. Optionally, freeze gummy worms into an ice ring for extra effect.
  3. In a large punch bowl, pour the entire bottle of fruit punch (64 oz). Add orange juice and pineapple juice. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Slowly pour in the lemon-lime soda and ginger ale down the side of the bowl to preserve fizz. Stir very gently.
  5. Scoop large dollops of sherbet into the punch. Do not stir; let it float on top to create a creamy, frothy layer.
  6. Using tongs or an ice scoop, carefully add small chunks of dry ice (about golf ball size) to the punch bowl. Do not touch dry ice with bare hands.
  7. Let the punch sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the dry ice fog to build up and the sherbet to start melting.
  8. Ladle the punch into cups, including some sherbet foam and optional garnishes. Add fresh dry ice every 30 minutes to maintain the fog effect.

Notes

Do not let anyone eat or swallow the dry ice. It is extremely cold and can cause internal burns. Ensure the punch bowl is not sealed with a lid to allow carbon dioxide gas to escape. For a less sweet version, use diet soda and sugar-free sherbet. The dry ice effect lasts about 20-30 minutes per batch; add fresh dry ice as needed.
